Foundaro Front Support

Foundaro Front is the content management platform for your public-facing sites. It is separate from Foundaro Hub and designed specifically for editorial teams who need to manage websites, blogs, news feeds, events, and landing pages without touching code.

Front is organized around five content types (Pages, Blogs, Posts, News, Events), a site and theme management system, and an editorial workflow with review, scheduling, and publishing controls.

A typical starting sequence:

• ›Create a site and give it a name and slug.
• ›Assign a theme to control the site's visual design.
• ›Add a custom domain and configure DNS if you have one.
• ›Create your first content item — a Page, Blog, or News item.
• ›Publish or schedule it.
• ›Invite team members and assign their Front roles.

Access to Foundaro Front requires a Front role. Your workspace admin grants Front roles from the Team section inside Front.

All five content types share the same rich text editor. See Content Editor for a full guide.

A Site is a publishing destination — a domain where your content is delivered to visitors. You can manage one site or many. Each site has its own domain, theme, navigation menus, URL redirects, and content inventory.

A Theme controls the visual design of a site — colors, typography, layout, and the HTML templates used to render each content type. You can create multiple themes and apply different themes to different sites. Themes support custom CSS and Twig template overrides for full design control.

• ›Add custom domains from the site's Domains tab. DNS setup instructions are shown there.
• ›SSL is provisioned automatically once DNS propagates.
• ›Navigation menus are built from the site's Menus tab and referenced by the theme.
• ›URL redirects prevent broken links when you change page slugs.

Content in Foundaro Front moves through a structured lifecycle:

• ›Draft — not visible to visitors, freely editable.
• ›Under Review — submitted for editorial approval. Authors cannot edit until reviewed.
• ›Scheduled — approved and queued to publish at a future date and time.
• ›Published — live and visible to site visitors.
• ›Archived — removed from public view, preserved internally.

The Workflow module gives editors a centralized view of items under review, scheduled content, open comments, and contributor submissions. Every save creates a revision snapshot — use the History tab to view and restore previous versions.

The Media Library is the central repository for images and files used across all content. Upload once, insert anywhere. Supported types include JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, SVG, PDF, and video formats.

• ›Always add alt text to images for accessibility and SEO.
• ›Compress images before uploading — large files slow down page loads.
• ›Check where a file is used before deleting it. Deleted media leaves broken images in published content.

The Editorial Calendar shows all content with a publish or scheduled date in a monthly grid view. Drag items between days to reschedule them. Filter by site or content type to focus on what matters.

Use the calendar to check publishing cadence before committing to a campaign plan, and to verify that scheduled items are spaced correctly after bulk scheduling.

The Analytics module provides four views:

• ›Freshness — identifies content that has not been updated recently, grouped by staleness band.
• ›Velocity — shows publishing output per week or month by content type and site.
• ›SEO Report — flags missing or weak metadata (meta title, meta description, featured image, alt text).
• ›Site Stats — content distribution and recent activity summary per site.

Foundaro Front has its own role system, independent from Foundaro Hub roles. Front roles are assigned to existing workspace members from the Team section inside Front.

• ›ADMIN — full access: sites, themes, team, publishing.
• ›EDITOR — create, edit, and publish all content. Manage menus and media. No site or theme access.
• ›AUTHOR — create and edit own content. Submit for review. Cannot publish directly.
• ›CONTRIBUTOR — drafts only. All content requires review before it can be published.

Users with no Front role cannot access Foundaro Front at all, regardless of their Hub role.
